The "Love Hurts" virus hit in spring 2000 and infected affected millions of computers and caused more damage than any other computer virus to date. Users were infected via e-mail, through internet chat systems, and through other shared file systems. The worm sent copies of itself via Microsoft Outlook's address book entries. The mail included an executable file attachment with the e-mail subject line, "ILOVEYOU." The worm had the ability to overwrite several types of files, including .gif and .jpg files. It modified the Internet Explorer start page and changed Registry keys. It also moved other files and hid MP3 files on affected systems. This was probably the nastiest virus that's been spread throught many computers.

Although anti-virus programs try to keep an updated list of all computer viruses in existence, they obviously can't be 100% successful at that. Because of this, newer viruses that may have not been added to the definitions list of anti-virus programs are better at spreading across computer systems. Older viruses are much more likely to be detected, since anti-virus companies have had time to detect them and add them to their definitions list.

Every computer could have a virus but if you use your computer carefully it can be impossible for the virus to come to your computer.

The exceptions list that exists in many anti-virus programs allows you to specify 'exceptions' that the anti-virus program will overlook when scanning for viruses and monitoring suspicious activity. This can be useful if your anti-virus program is blocking a non-virus, stopping it from doing what it is supposed to be doing. For example, if your anti-virus program stopped the Google Chrome installer program from making changes to your computer you would want to create an exception - since the Chrome installer is a perfectly legitimate program that will not harm your computer.
